Simon Christopher Bryant (born 22 November 1982) is a former professional association footballer, who spent five years (1999–2004) in The Football League with Bristol Rovers.[2]

Bryant began his career as a trainee with Bristol Rovers and after being promoted to the professional ranks at the club in 1999,remained at the club as a player until 2004. During this spell he went on loan to Tiverton Town during the Christmas and new year period in 2003/2004.

He signed for Mangotsfield United in the summer of 2008, but left the club after less than a month, citing work commitments, without having played a single competitive match, whereupon he joined Cadbury Heath in August that year. He moved to Oldland Abbotonians a year later, where he made 12 league appearances, scoring once, during the 2009–10 season.[3]

In October 2011 he was appointed as assistant coach to Martyn Grimshaw at Longwell Green Sports F.C.
